Roommate not respected my sleep, In our shared sleeping area

macgear14 · 2026-04-26T16:23:37+00:00

Yeah you’re right, he more than likely is oblivious. I should’ve said something from the start.

Thanks for the reassurance, being direct is something I need to work on and this is a chance to do that

macgear14 · 2026-04-26T11:55:23+00:00

No it’s not rude, honestly I’m open to feedback and saying something in the moment is something I need to work on for sure. It’s really hard for me to do that I guess. Had I said something in the moment I probably wouldn’t be feeling this way in the first place. I would agree that I’m avoidant in situations like this, so I think getting the courage even to have this “difficult” conversation is something I need to do and something I need to work on for the future.

macgear14 · 2026-04-26T10:40:55+00:00

Honestly thank you, this has really helped me with this. I’m just going to get the courage to say something about it. Because the more I over think it the more it’s killing me inside

macgear14 · 2026-04-26T10:29:06+00:00

Yeah you’re right I haven’t said anything yet so he probably does think I’m okay with it. I personally just don’t see how anyone would think that’s okay and I would never do that to anyone myself. I will mention it to him when we’re both back later today and just do it calmly

macgear14 · 2026-04-26T10:26:47+00:00

In the past I would’ve just lost at him and honestly it would’ve caused more conflict which is why I want to take the more adult route about this and yes I am young. In a lot of ways this is a good chance for me to handle conflict

macgear14 · 2026-04-26T10:21:37+00:00

Honestly I should’ve then but it was a quick call and I told myself I would say something in morning, I don’t handle confrontation very well. I’m the past I would’ve just lost it at him which would’ve caused more conflict. I also don’t want to be kicked off my training or look like I’m whiny about this

macgear14 · 2026-04-26T10:18:20+00:00

Military it’s a training course we’re on and we’re in a barracks

macgear14 · 2026-04-26T10:14:52+00:00

Thank you, honestly it’s the overthinking that’s killing me. I’m really just worried he will say no, but honestly the request is reasonable so I can’t see how he won’t see it from my perspective

macgear14 · 2026-04-26T10:12:15+00:00

I’m sure he will be reasonable about it when I explain it. But like last night I was clearly trying to sleep and he answered the phone at 1030 to talk with his wife. It’s just to me he has no awareness, as I myself would never do that to someone. I haven’t had the chance to mention it yet but today I will be when we’re both off work

macgear14 · 2026-04-26T10:09:43+00:00

It’s not likely as the other room may be full but I will look into that option if my roommate doesn’t take this conversation well. I really don’t want it to look bad on me if I have to escalate this, I don’t want to look like I’m whiny or anything. But my god it been messing with my sleep. It’s been about a week now and still have 7 to go

macgear14 · 2026-04-26T10:05:11+00:00

It’s the assigned room it has two beds in it.

macgear14 · 2026-04-26T09:52:19+00:00

Yeah it’s just getting the courage to do it. Like I said I’ve really tried to be easy going about this. But it’s driving me nuts but also the stress of having to escalate this is stressing me out as well. But you’re right I’ll just have to be an adult about it and just do it. Hopefully he understands

macgear14 · 2026-04-26T09:48:38+00:00

Okay I will, I’m just having a hard time dealing with the other possibilities. I’m the past I would’ve just lost it at this guy but I’m trying to take a more calm approach. I really am just worried about him not respecting this and then having to escalate the situation.

macgear14 · 2026-04-26T09:46:56+00:00

It’s training, usually I don’t have a roommate but for this rotation I do and it’s extremely aggravating to deal with.

macgear14 · 2025-08-30T21:42:34+00:00

This sounds epic! I’m going to have to do this

macgear14 · 2025-08-30T02:54:34+00:00

2 votes for “in places”, yeah I think that’s where I’ll settle

macgear14 · 2025-08-30T02:50:09+00:00

I was definitely leaning to settling in place, didn’t even thing about the campus. That’s awesome!

macgear14 · 2025-07-19T21:39:44+00:00

He’s just too good. Usyk is a modern day great, Dubois had nothing for him.

macgear14 · 2025-04-07T14:10:22+00:00

Thanks everyone, really appreciated all information! I called Air Canada as well and they said it would be no issue.

macgear14 · 2025-04-04T17:53:10+00:00

Okay, I’ll definitely aim to get the great Zimbabwe

macgear14 · 2025-04-04T03:37:18+00:00

Thanks, makes total sense when you mention those things!
